Thanks so much to the folks who came out and supported Paperhand this past
weekend! We raised enough to pay our rent for the year!! Amazing, we are so
grateful.

This weekend Saxapahaw, our hometown, will be hosting a Holiday Market with
lots of local arts, crafts, antiques, and much more. The Haw River Ballroom
will be the epicenter of this on both Sat and Sun along with the Sxphw Artist
Group. Paperhand's studio will be open to the public from 11-3 selling
original t-shirts and DVD's of our past shows for just $5! This is a great
deal and they make a great stocking stuffer!
